The Role of Unions and Political Agitation
Shapiro discusses the involvement of unions in the protests, noting that they have historically opposed illegal immigration due to its potential to undercut wages for their members. However, he argues that unions are now supporting illegal immigration as they seek to organize undocumented workers, which he believes undermines their original purpose. He points out that the current unrest is a result of the enforcement of immigration laws, which has been largely ignored in recent years. Shapiro criticizes the media's portrayal of the situation, suggesting that they are downplaying the violence and chaos that has erupted in the streets.
Gavin Newsom and Trump's Response
The podcast shifts focus to California Governor Gavin Newsom, who has been vocal in his opposition to President Trump's immigration policies. Shapiro highlights Newsom's criticism of Trump's decision to deploy the National Guard to Los Angeles, framing it as an unnecessary escalation. In a moment of political theater, Trump jokingly suggests that Newsom should be arrested for his handling of the situation, a comment that Shapiro interprets as a strategic move to highlight Newsom's failures as a leader.
Shapiro also discusses the broader implications of Newsom's policies, arguing that they have contributed to the lawlessness in California. He contrasts Newsom's approach with that of Viktor Orban, the Prime Minister of Hungary, who has taken a hardline stance on immigration and has been successful in maintaining order and security in his country.
Interview with Viktor Orban
The episode features an interview with Viktor Orban, where he discusses his views on immigration, national sovereignty, and the influence of George Soros. Orban explains that his policies are designed to protect Hungary's borders and maintain cultural cohesion, contrasting sharply with the open-border policies favored by many in the West. He argues that the European Union's approach to immigration has become increasingly imperialistic, undermining the sovereignty of member states.
Orban also addresses the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, emphasizing that the resolution to the war lies not in negotiations between Russia and Ukraine but rather in discussions between the United States and Russia. He expresses concern over the economic impact of the war on Europe and advocates for a ceasefire to prevent further destruction.
The Cultural Clash and Political Landscape
Shapiro and Orban discuss the cultural clash between traditional values and progressive ideologies, with Orban asserting that the struggle for the soul of the West is ongoing. He argues that the left's attempts to dismantle traditional frameworks are detrimental to society and that Hungary serves as a counterexample to this trend. Orban's perspective on the importance of national identity and the need to resist external influences resonates with Shapiro, who shares his concerns about the erosion of American values.
The conversation touches on the role of media and public opinion in shaping political discourse, with Orban highlighting the need for transparency regarding foreign influence in domestic affairs. He emphasizes the importance of understanding who is funding political movements and the impact this has on national sovereignty.
